Landfill leachate was successfully treated in upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactors regardless of the addition of granular sludge. Initial operating period was significantly reduced by the addition of granular sludge. At hydraulic retention time (HRT) of one day, chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal rates in Control and Granule reactor were maintained over 90%, respectively with organic loading rate (OLR) of $4-8kgCOD/m^3.d$. During the experiment, the inorganic precipitates were accumulated in and around the sludge, and in the wall of the reactors were formed in both reactors regardless of addition of granular sludge. Specific methanogenic activity (SMA) increased as adaptation of microorganism to the substrate and OLR were increased. The maximum SMA value of the sludge for Granule reactor was about $0.57gCOD/g{\cdot}VSS{\cdot}.d$. The SMA value was not decreased because of excessive inorganic accumulation, however, it was needed to have pre-treatment process of influent to remove the inorganic metals.

최근에 세계화, 무역자유화에 따른 컨테이너 물동량이 증가하고 있다. 그에 발맞추어 초대형 컨테이너선이 등장하게 되고 신개념, 고효율의 항만인프라의 도입이 요구되고 있다. 이런 배경에 따라 최근에 국내외에서 부유식 안벽에 관한 기술 개발 및 연구가 더욱 필요한 상황이다. 부유식 안벽은 이동가능한 부유식 구조로 기존 항만의 확장 또는 신규 항만 건설시 환경문제를 최소화하고 기항, 선박수 및 선박의 크기에 따른 안벽 배열을 최적화 할 수 있어 항만 기능을 고도화함으로써 녹색항만을 구현하는데 많은 기여를 하게 될 것이다. 특히 컨테이너선의 양현하역과 환적이 가능하게 되어 컨테이너 터미널의 화물처리능력을 확대할 수 있을 뿐 아니라 기항선박의 체류시간을 최소화 할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 또한, 우리나라는 삼면이 바다로 크고 작은 항만들이 해안선을 따라 위치하고 있다. 이러한 항만들을 안전하게 보호하기 위한 방파제는 항만 기본시설인 외곽시설 중의 가장 중요한 구조물이다. 국내에 설치된 방파제는 대부분 사석이나 케이슨을 이용한 중력식 방파제로써 해저에 고정되어 해수면상으로 건설되므로 항내 외 해수교환을 차단하여 항내 수질악화를 초래할 뿐만 아니라 수심에 따라 막대한 건설비용이 소요된다. 따라서 친환경적이고 경제적인 새로운 형식의 방파제에 대한 연구 및 개발이 필요한 실정이다. 그 중 하나의 대안인 부유식 방파제는 공사기간이 짧고 비교적 수심에 대한 제약이 없는 것이 특징이다. 또한 해수의 원활한 흐름이 가능하기 때문에 중력식 방파제에 비해 경제적이며, 환경적 측면에서 큰 장점이 있다. 하지만 아직까지 부유식 방파제에 대한 국내 및 해외에서의 연구는 이론적인 해석을 중심으로 이루어져 부유식 방파제 실용화를 위한 많은 연구가 수행되어야 할 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구에서는 부유식 안벽 내에서 정온도를 효과적으로 유지하기 위하여 부유식 방파제를 설치하고 소파성능과 부유식 안벽내의 영향성을 수리모형실험을 통해 분석하였다.

This study investigates the influence of human capital on wages of female marriage migrants in Korea using the 'National Survey on Multicultural Families 2012'. The results show that educational attainment has little influence on wages of female marriage migrants in Korea and that educational attainment in their origin country has positive influence on the labor market in Korea. However, work experiences in the origin country and duration in Korea are not significantly related to wages of female marriage migrants in Korea. The subgroup analyses by nationality find that the education wage premium is large in groups for Korean-Chinese women, other Asian countries and other countries. Among occupations, managers and professionals officers earn the highest wages in all groups. In addition, the manager and professional officer groups show the large education wage premium, especially among Chinese, Vietnamese and Korean-Chinese female marriage migrants.

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships among experience, perceived value, and satisfaction of rural tourists based on the experience economy(Pine, & Gilmore, 1998; 1999). In addition, this study included the moderating effect of length of stay on the proposed relationships. This study was attempt to develop measurement scales based on the theory of experience economy(Pine, & Gilmore, 1998). Data were collected from 481 visitors by field survey from the 10 rural tourism communities. SPSS 20.0 and Amos 18.0 statistical package were used for frequency, reliability, confirmatory factor, and structural equation modelling analysis. The results of a confirmatory factor analysis yielded four dimensions of experience(esthetics, education, escape, and entertainment). The results of structural equation modeling indicated that entertainment, esthetics, and education had positive effects on perceived value, which in turn had a positive effect on satisfaction. In addition, length of stay moderated the relationships among experience, perceived value, and satisfaction. The entertainment and esthetics among experience factor had an effects on perceived value in the group of day visit group, and the entertainment, education, and esthetics among experience factor had an effects on perceived value in the group of stay night group. And the perceived value had a positive effect on satisfaction in the all group. Therefore, in order to increase rural tourists' satisfaction effectively, practitioners needs to develop rural tourism products by considering area of experience economy including tourists' length of stay.
